I would give it a full month of play (assuming 162-game season) before I took any action. All of these baseball simulation games, OOTP no exception, simulate hot and cold streaks. Your top-rated player may have just started the season on a cold streak. (BTW, there's no DTD injury that you are overlooking?) During the month, look to make lineup changes that might shake things up, or sit him down vs. lefties (or righties, whichever numbers are worse). If he's still doing badly after a month or so, consider sending him down to AAA (if you can) or benching him (if you can't) to see if that turns him around. Ultimately, if his performance continues to be less than expected, you may see his ratings drop to match, as has been discussed elsewhere in these forums.
